NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope reached a remarkable milestone—its 100,000th exposure, capturing an image of a quasar located 9 ...
By analyzing the data from Leahy's atlas of double radio-sources and NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database (NED), Serbian astronomers have explored an X-shaped radio galaxy designated 3C 315. Results of ...
Here’s how it works. Astronomers have discovered something surprising about the universe's smallest and faintest class of galaxies: Ultra-Diffuse Galaxies (UDGs). A research team studying these ...
Galaxies are the building blocks of the universe. Clusters of galaxies, and clusters of clusters of galaxies, called superclusters, make up the structures in the geography of the universe. In this ...
First discovered in 2013, Leo P is relatively isolated from the influence of larger galaxies like the Milky Way and Andromeda. A team of researchers at the Space Telescope Science Institute ...
In the century since Hubble’s pioneering work, astronomers like me have learned that the universe is vast and contains trillions of galaxies. In 1610, astronomer Galileo Galilei used the newly ...
By mapping the distribution of more than 450 million galaxies, SPHEREx will help scientists improve our understanding of the physics behind this extreme cosmic event. 2. The observatory will ...
Within the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument's early data, scientists have uncovered the largest samples ever of intermediate-mass black holes and dwarf galaxies hosting an active black hole ...
